Alarm problem? Engine wont start after unlock on 1st attempt - ok afterwards

Hello

Does this sound like an alarm problem or car/battery problem?

When i havent used my car for a few hours this problem occurs, I unlock the car (have a cat3 clifford) and turn the key, nothing happens.. when i then lock and then unlock the car again, it starts up fine with no problems whatsoever. It only seems to occur if the car is left for a bit.

Ive had the alarm about 4 years only and its been perfect up until now. Its not a major problem but id like to resolve it.

Any ideas?

Cheers

I'd definitely start with the alarm being faulty, cat3 though??

Cat3 i assumed... i think it was about 300 quid so maybe its cat1?? (I always forget which is the better, cat 1 or 3!) I still have all the paperworked burried away somewhere. It has the alarm, imob and motion sensor things.. I will try find the model and do some searches on google before i contact a clifford specialist. Cheers
